problem #3

Sephia LS 1.8L V4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 72,000 miles

for a decent, economy car it is a shame this problem is with dashboards in almost every car of this make and model, it really throws you off, just by looking at it. it does not help in any way the reputation of a dependable car so far.

dashboard came lose at defroster vents making it a safety hazard in cold weather, places on windshield would not defrost as fast as other areas , and have several friends with same model do the same thing even a guy at auto parts said he had the same problem with his.
